Goteborg or Varnamo
With our first Goteborg vs Varnamo prediction we venture into the Double Chance market. We don’t think this game will end in a draw and here’s why. Goteborg didn’t register a home draw the entire last season (W7 L8). They actually ended 2022 on a run of 16 consecutive league matches without a draw (W8 L8). Also, neither of the 2 H2H games last season was even close to a draw.
BTTS
Our next free betting tip is that both teams will score. This happened in both of their league clashes in 2022. This was also the outcome for 4 of Goteborg’s 5 pre-season games.
Goteborg to Score First
Our final Goteborg vs Varnamo prediction is that the hosts will draw first blood. Goteborg might have lost both matches vs Varnamo last season but they scored the first goal both times. They also scored first in 5 of their last 8 home matches.
Goteborg vs Varnamo Lineups and Team News
Goteborg
Goteborg come into the new season with a new manager after the sudden departure of the successful in 2022 Mikael Stahre. This unsettled the preparation and also stalled 2-3 transfers that are yet to be completed.
The main goalie Dahlberg and 2 others are out injured. However, all of Trondsen, Ghasem, Kahed and Carneil have recovered from minor problems. They all should start too.
Varnamo
Varnamo’s first-ever top flight experience in 2022 was a pleasant one. Stayed out of trouble all season and never looked troubled. This was mainly thanks to Magashy’s playmaking and Antonsson’s Golden Boot contributions (22 goals). Both left the club in the winter so now Varnamo are challenged.
Endvall was signed to fill in for Antonsson and he should be starting every game up front. Beefed up the defence with some good new signings, but the pillar of the back line Tihi returned to his parent club AIK so now the ex-Goteborg centre-back Vilar is expected to become a regular starter. There seem to be no injury issues in the squad so Varnamo enter the new season at full strength.
